Hello!
I need to implement a certain kind of string truncation where a string splits in the middle and its left part becomes resizable. Here is what it might look like:
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. Ut ornare dignissim ligula sed commodo."
becomes
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet ... commodo."
I am open to solutions using pure CSS or with some help of JavaScript/jQuery. So far I have tried CSS, but it did not give me the exact result I wanted. For one, I would like a string, once stretched out fully [in a table cell], so there's no need for truncation anymore, to lose the omission points ("...") in the middle and display normally.
Here is a pic to demonstrate how it's done in OS X: http://i40.tinypic.com/29yqslf.jpg
Thanks.
